It's more about personal principles and values, not self control. I make impulsive purchases all the time, but exactly 0% of them goes to scummy piece of shit corporations whose board of directors should be put on death row.
There's an element of self control to sticking to values. I've seen people proclaim like they're going to boycott EA because of various reasons, but then some shiny new game comes out and those values fall.
Maybe they never really had he values in the first place.
